Mission
Horizon Prosthetics was established in January of 2007 by
Mandy J. Myers, CP, CFm. In late 2006,
after working in Colorado Springs
for just over a year, Mandy realized there was a high demand for a specialized
prosthetic care center. Mandy’s
mission is for Horizon Prosthetics to provide advanced prosthetic services in
a compassionate and positive environment.
History
While completing her undergraduate degree in mechanical
engineering, Mandy was introduced to the prosthetics industry by a family
friend. Mandy traveled to Las Vegas, Nevada
to shadow a Prosthetist named Robert Brooks, CPO and after a few short hours
she immediately knew this was the career for her. Mandy’s official prosthetics training began
at Scott Sabolich
Prosthetics & Research Center in Oklahoma
City, Oklahoma. There she trained under direction of Scott
Sabolich, CP, LP and Jay Martin, CP, LP learning the principles of prosthetic
design and the importance of one-on-one patient care. After completing her engineering education,
Mandy attended California State Dominguez Hills Prosthetic Certification
program in Aliso Viejo, California. Her residency was completed in Phoenix, Arizona
under the direction of Randy West, CP.
While working in Arizona,
Mandy also had the privilege of working with Jack Ullendahl, CP and Upper
Extremity Specialist on several unique prosthetic cases. Mandy and her husband moved to Colorado Springs in the
fall of 2005 and immediately knew this was “Home”.
